AVHS Social Studies Academic Integrity & Digital Citizenship Contract
Required for all AVHS Social Studies students
Digital Citizenship means using technology responsibly, ethically, and legally.
All digital work submitted must be your own and completed on the provided Google Classroom documents. Digital assignments must have an edit history in your name. Copying and pasting from outside sources (including classmates or the internet) may result in a zero on the assignment.
Academic dishonesty includes (but is not limited to):
Using unauthorized materials or technology (including AI) on assignments or assessments
Copying from another student or source
Allowing others to copy or submit your work
Having someone else complete your work
Using unapproved communication tools or websites during assessments
Posting or sharing assessment questions or answers online
Failing to report knowledge of cheating
Using AI tools to generate full assignments without significant personal input
Consequences for academic dishonesty may include:
A zero on the assignment or assessment
A referral to administration and permanent record notation (per PUSD policy)
Mention of academic dishonesty in letters of recommendation for any second offense
If you're found in possession of or using stolen test materials, or do not report receiving them, you will face school-wide disciplinary action
IMPORTANT: If a teacher suspects a student of academic dishonesty during an assessment, the student may receive a zero and be referred to administration.
We’re excited to learn with you this year and are committed to maintaining a fair and honest academic environment.
